Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Heritage Series 2XL pairs a 32mm cup diameter and 8.45mm throat with a wider, rounded rim. Its model-specific focus is player comfort during extended playing, while its playing use is described as soft, articulated passages. The series construction uses a 1.2mm cup wall nearest the rim and added mass at the base of the cup, bringing the stated responsive character and rich overtone structure to the design. Gold plating covers the rim and cup; the body is silver-plated.
